In a laughable meltdown that’s got conservatives rolling their eyes, 83-year-old Sen. Bernie Sanders declared President Donald Trump and Elon Musk are now “the scariest time in my lifetime”—trumping even the Cuban Missile Crisis and 9/11. Speaking in a video set to be uploaded, Sanders doubled down, claiming, “These are, you know, the scariest times in my lifetime, that’s all. I think that’s objectively the truth.” His rant, as reported by Twitchy, targets Trump’s tax cuts for billionaires, Musk’s control of X (formerly Twitter), and their supposed “oligarchy” power, whining, “You combine that with Mr. Musk owning Twitter and able to send out his messages to hundreds of millions of people.”

What a clown. Sanders, who lived through nuclear brinkmanship and terrorist attacks, now trembles at Trump’s America First policies and Musk’s DOGE cuts—moves that have slashed $2 trillion in federal waste and boosted the economy. His hypocrisy shines through: a millionaire socialist with three homes, preaching wealth redistribution while fearing Trump’s prosperity. Posts on X are mocking him mercilessly, with @JackPosobiec quipping, “Bernie’s scared of Trump’s success—9/11 wasn’t this funny!”
For Trump supporters, this is a badge of honor. With Trump extraditing cartel bosses, securing the border, and pushing peace in Ukraine, Sanders’ panic proves they’re winning. Web reports from TIME and Politico show Sanders rallying against “oligarchy” on his “Stop Oligarchy Tour,” but it’s clear he’s terrified of Musk’s free speech and Trump’s leadership. Sanders’ claim that tax cuts hurt workers is debunked by a February 2025 Fox News poll showing 58% of Americans back Trump’s economic plan. Check the video—it’s a masterclass in liberal hysteria, proving Trump and Musk are shaking up the right people.
